20 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A method comprising: determining regions of a network with available performance capacity for a transaction to proceed at a particular time based on triggered measurement monitoring of the network and failures of the network; generating a scheduled time for a particular transaction to proceed via a particular region of the network based on the determining; and initiating the particular transaction at the scheduled time via the particular region of the network.

2

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the triggered measurement monitoring is based on detecting a shift in a traffic pattern.

3

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the failures of the network occur at certain protocol layers.

4

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining is further based on a performance level of an element of the network falling below a threshold.

5

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining is further based on historic measurement information.

6

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining is further based on dynamic checks of the network.

7

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining is performed based on a load on the network.

8

8. An apparatus comprising: a processor; and a memory to store computer program instructions, the computer program instructions when executed on the processor cause the processor to perform operations comprising: determining regions of a network with available performance capacity for a transaction to proceed at a particular time based on triggered measurement monitoring of the network and failures of the network; generating a scheduled time for a particular transaction to proceed via a particular region of the network based on the determining; and initiating the particular transaction at the scheduled time via the particular region of the network.

9

9. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the triggered measurement monitoring is based on detecting a shift in a traffic pattern.

10

10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the failures of the network occur at certain protocol layers.

11

11. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the determining is further based on a performance level of an element of the network falling below a threshold.

12

12. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the determining is further based on historic measurement information.

13

13. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the determining is further based on dynamic checks of the network.

14

14. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the determining is performed based on a load on the network.

15

15. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing computer program instructions, which, when executed on a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising: determining regions of a network with available performance capacity for a transaction to proceed at a particular time based on triggered measurement monitoring of the network and failures of the network; generating a scheduled time for a particular transaction to proceed via a particular region of the network based on the determining; and initiating the particular transaction at the scheduled time via the particular region of the network.

16

16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the triggered measurement monitoring is based on detecting a shift in a traffic pattern.

17

17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the failures of the network occur at certain protocol layers.

18

18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the determining is further based on a performance level of an element of the network falling below a threshold.

19

19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the determining is further based on historic measurement information.

20

20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the determining is further based on dynamic checks of the network.
